Frosty medium steel brown with very subtle hints of light bluish steel overtone. Satiny and very attractive showing just a light touch of friction on the highpoints. Looks choice but there are a few marks including a diagonal nick on the jawline and a small patch of fine roughness and verdigris over the N in UNITED. MDS, Breen state II, with two faint horizontal "trenches" in the field before the portrait: one from the lips to the dentils and the other from the nose to the dentils. Called AU55 net AU50 and tied for CC#8 in the Noyes census, his photo #21228. Bland says AU55 and tied for CC#8 in his census. Comes with a provenance that has been traced back over 100 years.
